    Look for HDPE with recycle symbol 2. Typically blue or natural which is milky white. Try food manufacturers in the area. Kalona cheese factory sold the barrles for 10 each (they closed down last year). If you come up short try places of laundry service. They ship bleech in the same barrles. Rinse the battles good, fill and add 4 cups vinegar to reduce bleach potency. Let sit over night and empty.

    Much easier to find the bleach ones. Remember recycle no. 2 HDPE. Sometimes odly labeled PE-HD
